(First Flight - Action & Video)

[decisiveconquest]

(The Docks & Beyond)

(The dark heavy fabric of the North weighs her down and Daenerys pauses more than once in her solitary journey to survey her surroundings. Where in the name of any gods is she? All of this feels like a dream and she glances down, touching the silver dragon broach to remind herself that, yes, she is awake. The metal is cold against her fingertips and her dreams are usually not that intense.

Eventually, she will reach a city. Eventually, she will seek aid. But she is a proud Queen and she is in a foreign land without a friend and without her children.)

Excuse me... (There is nothing she can do but approach strangers and hope they do not kill her on the spot.) Can you tell me the name of this land?

(Video)

(Using the communicator seems...deadly. Dangerous. She has no idea who can see her or what plans they might make. Yet she needs help.)

Have any dragons been seen in the skies? (If her sons are here, she needs to find them.) I am looking for one with black scales and another with green.

(She will keep it at that, her face expressionless. She has lived her life hearing lessons about not giving her enemies emotional or other fodder.)

[bigbadrose]

Have you checked Fayren? Qubine just ran for election again, but I don't know all the dragons here. There's a lot.

[video]

[decisiveconquest]

Are you suggesting a dragon ran for election? (Is that what she means?)

[Video]

[madcuriosity]

Dragons!? You know of dragons, miss? Ah! Are they big dragons? Little ones?

[Video]

[decisiveconquest]

They were little when they first hatched. I have raised them since the beginning and they see me as their mother. (Her voice naturally softens - as does her expression. Alice is adorable.) Would you like to meet them? Their names are Drogon and Rhaegal.

[ubiquitously]

[Uai tends to tense when he hears people asking about dragons, given his protective feelings for Hana and own true form. The request for a scaled dragon, black or green, quickly rules out any of the dragons that he has met. Maybe she’s just an enthusiast? Or did she lose some companions?]

Any reason for those specific colours, or are they just your favorite?

Video

[decisiveconquest]

They are my sons; I know their scales like the back of my hand. (And she worries for them, of course. Especially after losing Viserion.) They will be calm if they see me.

[Video]

[kalmaleader]

[Hey, here's a dragon. But not quite the one she's looking for.]

We have dragons that are native to Fayren, and only a couple from another world. If the dragons you're looking for are from your own world, it's unlikely that they arrived here with you. But not entirely impossible.

[Video]

[decisiveconquest]

(He is a nice sight nonetheless. The fact that he can speak is remarkable.)

I will look even if the chance is remote. They would do the same for me. (She has learned her loyalty to them the hard way.) Are you the elected official, by chance?

[theyseemeroland]

I've only seen a gold dragon, sorry.

[A gold dragon that can turn into a cute little girl... or maybe a cute little girl that can turn into a gold dragon.]

Are they your friends? What are their names?

[decisiveconquest]

(Viserion was gold. Her heart clenches and she closes her eyes to regain her composure.)

How large...?

Drogon and Rhaegal. They are my sons.

;video

[hellorhighwater]

[OH HI THERE NEW DRAGON FRIEND!!! The face that comes on the network is the exact opposite: eager and open and smiling, the loosely bound dark hair and heavy beard not all that dissimilar from something she might see in Westeros and beyond, with a broad but lean and powerful build that could easily belong to a Dothraki warrior.]

If you lost someone when you showed up, check Everglade and Fayren. Everglade's homey for shadow dragons, and a nature dragon's got lots of room to spread out and draw power in the forests of Fayren. This place caters to all sorts, they should be all right.

[He pauses, squinting a little at the dragon on the feed--because she's obviously a dragon herself, based on her looks. Could easily be a royal, so...]

Where do you hail from, Lady Dragon?

;video

[decisiveconquest]

(He is certainly handsome enough to be quite the distraction! Daenerys is reminded starkly of her Dothraki and maybe even of Drogo himself. While her heart has been stolen by another, she will always, always love her late first husband.)

I do not know of such distinctions. My trio are only dragons as far as I know, though the largest is as black as smoke and shadow. They say he is Balerion, the Black Dread reborn.

(Everglade. Fayren. She memorizes the places, clenching her hand at her side.)

Westeros was where I was born, but I was raised in the East.

[what_is_a_man]

There are many dragons native to Fayren, but unless they were with you when you awoke, you will not find what you're looking for.

[decisiveconquest]

I am a mother; I must look for them if even the smallest chance exists.

[lazuline]

I'm doubtless that you have not already heard of the dragons that reside here in Fayren, nor about the fact that the ones you seek may not have arrived here with you.

However, should you wish to look anyway, I can arrange a trip to the mountains in Fayren for you to see for yourself, if you'd like.

[She'd started off serious, but at the end there's the smallest of smiles.]

[decisiveconquest]

Yes, I have heard variations of both. (She arches a brow, cautious.) You do this out of the kindness of your heart?

Action;

[greatprecious]

[It's not unusual for Myrrh to wander off from her new guardian's side to roam Fayren. The forests here are as close to her old home as they get, so she'll often come back to visit and tend to a small shrine she put up in honor of the poor animals who lost their lives.

Myrrh kept her wings folded and wrapped around herself, and was draped in a cloak big enough that her most distinct features on her back where hidden as she made her way to her destination, only to be stopped by a stranger asking a harmless question. Ever the shy thing, Myrrh takes a step back way and takes a short while to actually answer.]

This land...? This is called Genessia.

Action;

[decisiveconquest]

I have a feeling Genessia is a distant land. I know of nothing like this in the East or the West. (But she isn't panicking; not openly. Daenerys learned long enough to hide her fear; to remain composed through all difficulties.)

How old are you? (She has a soft spot for children and Myrrh qualifies.)

[Video]

[liorafae]

There are dragons in Fayren. I'm a dragon, even though I'm small.

[The little dragon onscreen seems a bit jittery.]

I don't think I've seen dragons with those colors here. Are they from your world too? What color are their wings? If I see them, I want to be sure they're the ones you're looking for...

I know Lazarus has black scales in my world. And one dragon with green scales...I think her name is Xylina. Several other dragons have green wings, though...

[Video]

[decisiveconquest]

(She is charmed by this little dragon and she finally smiles without restraint.)

My sons were once your size. (Daenerys doesn't need to think to remember Drogon's beautiful wings or Rhaegal's vivid scales.) Drogon has black scales and wings the color of blood. Rhaegal has green and bronze scales and his wings are the color of fire.

Thank you for looking for them. They will not harm you.

[video]

[skillset]

[ Steve is relatively new himself and still working out how many things the communicators can do. But dragons. That's not something he's accustomed to overhearing on the feed, so he can't resist responding even if he'll probably be less than helpful as a source of information. ]

Are dragons common in your world, ma'am?

[ He's tall and broad-shouldered, although that might be hard to parse over video, but the dark blond hair and light eyes won't be. Or the earnest expression. ]

[video]

[decisiveconquest]

(At least he looks normal. Daenerys is still on her guard; she is without her armies, her dragons and her friends. She hasn't been this vulnerable in years.)

No. My three are the last. (Now they are down to two, which is why she didn't include Viserion's description in her original entry.)

Action

[nomoreroom]

[It's a rare day, when Alastor sets foot in Genessia City. Didn't usually find the place very interesting, save for the occasional newcomer, wasn't usually worth a trip otherwise.

Today was only different in the fact that his culinary tastes drove him here; one can only live off uncooked food for so long.

It gets boring.

But it seemed like he'd picked a good day to get bored, there was, in fact, someone new down here! Lucky him.]

This one right here? Genessia, sweetheart!

[That voice sounded odd, distant and tinny, marred with uncomfortable crackles and pops. Impossible for him not to loom, considering he was seven foot eight.]

Did you just blow in? You got that rabbity look to you.

Action

[decisiveconquest]

(Alastor, you are...a strange sight. But Daenerys knows better than to judge on appearances alone. Besides she is in no position to reject any help.)

...thank you. (Since she is all of five feet and two inches, she has no choice but to tilt her head back to see his face.] I'm not sure what rabbity means, but yes - I have just arrived. This place is very different from the home I know.

action:

[thefirething]

[ By now, Dany has probably been told a time or two where she is, and people have probably been helpful. That's not going to stop Charlie from trying to add her own helping hand. The direwolf puppies near her, both a brilliant white and both pretty keen on staying by Charlie's side, follow behind her as she approaches the woman carefully, a friendly half-smile on her face. She wants to introduce herself in a manner that doesn't include anything awkward, but one of the puppies has better ideas in mind.

It's Andi, the female, that approaches, crouched in a playful manner and tail wagging swiftly. There are a couple soft barks from the animal, and then she rolls over onto her back, exposing her stomach. Tail wagging hard, her whole back end wiggles on the ground, kicking up a faint amount of dust. ]


Andi, you goofball. You don't just approach strangers and ask them to play. What if she's afraid of dogs?

[ Charlie looks up at Dany, smiling apologetically. ]

I'm sorry about her. She's overly friendly. Meanwhile her brother?

[ And Charlie points at the puppy who stayed by her feet, watching his sister with a look of 'this idiot' on his canine face. ]

Vic isn't as big on people. He's friendly enough, won't bite or anything.

[ And now that she's done babbling, she introduces herself. ]

My name is Charlie.

action:

[decisiveconquest]

(Daenerys bends down after a small hesitation and rubs her hand over Andi's soft belly. Her smile makes it quite evident that she isn't afraid of dogs and that she finds puppies quite adorable. Andi has impeccable taste, it seems. Besides, she has seen a Direwolf before - albeit a much bigger one.)

I'm not. (She glances up at Charlie and straightens again, arching a brow quizzically.) They are Direwolves, are they not? I met one that was pure white, but he was nearly full grown.

(Inclining her head, she speaks softly, but clearly:)

I am Daenerys Targaryen.
